I just finished reading your book — which I liked very much. Engaging and informative about life in Turkey. It’s especially interesting to read in light of all that’s going on in the world. I was in Istanbul a year and a half ago but probably wouldn’t go now. I hope the postscript of your novel is happy: that you’ve made a good life for yourself with drawing, etc.

In my role as a book reviewer for an educational board that has Global Education as its mission, I also ask authors if they are willing to visit schools (in the USA). After reading your novel I know you have much to share with American youth who have little idea of how stifling religious traditions can be, particularly on young females. If this interests you, please respond to my e-mail and I will inform schools that you would be open to a visit. (What they offer is totally up to them, so I cannot get into those details.) But ultimately, you have much to offer.
